[QUOTE=coreseller]Best price I've found on Sachs OEM Clutch Kit:

That one's for an S. Didn't notice whether Perfectlap has an S. Either way, I think you're doing pretty well if you can find the Sachs kit for <$400.

Are you planning to replace your flywheel while you're at it? My original clutch still had some life left on it at 70k. The flywheel didn't look great, so Jake recommended replacement. I got a new one from a friend who'd sold his car. When I was shopping (before I got my friend's), this was about the best deal I could find on an OEM type unit:

Given all the other money you're spending to do the job right, this is probably not the place to save ~$450. Dial up the LuK website to make sure you're getting the correct model for your 2000.

just did the RMS, IMS Retrofit, Lightweight Flywheel, Spec clutch, changed all bearings and other clutch parts; and finally, the front main seal. I noticed mine had started to leak some as well.
I am going to check the boots, and definitely change the wheel bearings while I am in there.

Figured Mr. PerfectLap had an "S" per the center intake inlet. No Matter....Either way, think about how fortunate we are to have Charles at LN Engineering and Jake Raby to help us non tech guys out....seriously. These guys have put forth the effort and knowledge to see to it that enthusiasts like us can further our passions without the potential depth of pain.
